As I understand it, time travel isn't known to violate any discovered laws of physics. In fact, time travel forward is not only possible, the means are known and have been tested.

Not sure what you mean but time is relative, I agree. This and time travel are two different things however.

Yes, hasn't it occurred (at CERN?) that subatomic particles fired from their accelerator have arrived before they left? Pretty freakin' cool!

Years ago they loaded an atomic clock onto a supersonic jet. It was synchronized with another atomic clock back on the ground. Even with the absolutely trivial speed with regard to the speed of light there was a measurable difference when the supersonic clock returned. We know how to travel forward in time. We just don't know how, or even if it's is possible, to travel back. But we know no reason why it's not possible. At least that's what I understand.

as i mentioned you need a viable target. if you tried to send even a grain of sand it would most likely end up in the wrong place without a very serious targeting scanner. the earth nor anything else would be in the same place.
the cheese dip however rotel velveta taco beef & black beans
and i used the microwave to send it back in time to the point when it was hot.

Think of it this way, if you are moving at 10 mles per hour straight ahead and someone else is moving at 50 miles an hour away and than back to you more time would be have passed for you than for him but when he got back to you it is not in your past so he won't affect anything by having lived at a different pace. No matter how fast he goes, lets say the speed of light, it just means he got all kinds of things done in that second that passed for you But not in your time and space. It is always relative.
So yes you are correct about the clocks.

If you use the microwave to make instant coffee do you go back in time?
